5 Inspiring Attic Bathrooms

July 28, 2015 By xmlrpc Leave a Comment

Have you heard that house buyers love more bathrooms? One great place to install another bathroom is the attic. The attic can often get a bad rep, largely because many people don’t finish them and utilize their space. Attics can, however, be a great space for extra bathrooms. With the added dimension of the sloping from the roof, attic bathrooms can have interesting design elements as well as plenty of light. Let’s look at some beautiful examples of attic bathrooms to get you inspired to remodel your own!

Window Ceiling

Bathrooms elsewhere in the house may not be fortunate enough to have large windows installed, but the attic is a different story. Like in the bathroom above, you can have the whole slope be a window if you have the money for the renovation! This ample access to light creates a glowing atmosphere that lasts throughout the day and makes a small space bright and consequently seem bigger than before.

Tile Everywhere

This bathroom is a good reminder that you don’t have to use the material already on the room! Installing tile can be one way to establish the bathroom space distinctly. It also creates a different feel from other bathrooms where tiles wouldn’t extend much over your head.

Symmetry and the Chimney

This contemporary bathroom makes beautiful use of both the symmetry inherent in attic ceilings as well as the large chimney that erupts through its space. Instead of trying to hide the chimney, this bathroom highlights it, an effect that is overwhelmingly positive.

Skylight and White

This homeowner took advantage of the skylight accessibility by installing one right over the tub, a decision that not only provides ample illumination for the bather, but also across the rest of the room. Between the bright decor and natural light, the space has the illusion of being much bigger, an advantage in otherwise cramped attic quarters.

Themed Bathroom

Due to the accessibility of the slopes for looping at – especially while taking a soak – the attic bathroom is ideal for ceiling and wall murals. Install your own favorite mural and admire it while relaxing in the tub next time!

Don’t limit yourself to bathrooms in the lower levels – renovate your attic and install a bathroom in the highest reaches of your home. Not only will you increase your home’s value and get a healthy ROI, you can create a beautiful space to enjoy while you’re still living in your home.
